In the 90s, I had an uncle that lived in a small town. He did not have a FFL but took a truck load of firearms to the local gun show several times a year. I had a few guns to sell and spend the weekend there. All of the guys selling at inflated prices including my uncle. None were gun shops...

I have bought bunch of Kidd parts for 10-22s. All work great.

I ordered a Diamond D chest rig. My N frame .41 mag has a 6 inch barrel. Wanting a over clothing holster when out on the ATV or even driving a vehicle, but a hip holster would be impractical with the large revolver. In my case I ruled out leather due to gun/holster being exposed to whatever...

The first several years of production of mini-14s, they had wooden upper handguards not plastic like in the photo. I don't know what year they changed to plastic. I had one and when they came out in a few years later SS, I got one of those the year they came out. Can't remember if the SS had...

You might look for a pocket gun to carry in a pocket. Thats not a pocket gun. Even a J frame S&W round butt with 2 inch fits in my front pocket. It's not easy to sit with a firearm that big in there. Cargo pocket might work.

Normally a correct torque using a gauge works wonders. I did use a bit of blue on my 338 RUM and 375 H&H mag. Just because I don't want a hunt ruined by loose mounts., just as a backup. Last year I removed the rail on the 338 and to install the lighter Tally ring/mount. The screws came out with...

Ok, I did not think of that bullet. Sorry Wayno. I was thinking of the standard 55gr FMJ.

Going with what the poster printed that the manual said. "Standardized US military or factory loaded sporting .223." Ok what the heck does that mean? US military is 5.56mm stamped not .223. No wonder people get confused. I understand the differences between the 2. Wayno got it right, except...

I don't move it around. Just open and scoop out.

I found out a mortar can will hold about 8,000 5.56 cases. 9mm, 40 S&W, 45 acp a 50 cal ammo can full is enough. About 12 other calibers I am loading a 30 cal ammo can full or nearly so is enough.

Sold pending funds.

RCBS G group dies, this was a custom order set. Unknown if they still have these available. 3030 Ackley Improved with upgraded Hornady lock rings. No issues with the dies set. I removed the barrel on the that rifle and rebarreled it to a different caliber. $80.00 or best offer. Shipping to...

A E Nelson model 82B Fits S&W N frame revolvers with 6 inch barrel. Right hand front break holster. HKS 103 XL speed loader pouch that will fit any 6 shot N frame calibers. Used by a city cop early 80s. Really nice condition. I would keep and use it but am left handed. $ 40.00 for both...

What's somewhat funny with this topic. Myself speaking, I can show/prove why in the world of all calibers used in handguns the .22lr. Is not a good choice and maybe even the worse for use as a self-defense caliber. But others will say it is a good choice. The funny part is those that are on...

2nd on Wayne who owns Oregunsmithing. About 15 years ago I took a rifle with a Douglas barrel to him, wanting to bore out and rifle it from 33 win to 45-70. He checked it out and said he could do it. He told me then that only a few maybe 6 US gun shops could bore and rifle barrels outside of...
